The Product
The QSC PL325 is the smallest amplifier in the PowerLight 3 series, designed for the most demanding live audio users, whether in touring rigs or fixed installations. It is very rugged in design delivering up to 1250W into loads as low as 2Ω, housed in a compact 2U rackmount chassis. The main power stage is a linear class H design, helping to reduce AC current consumption, cooling requirements and weight.
Main features include a flow-thru air path and solid aluminium heat sink for maximum cooling, a dataPort for supporting remote computer control and/or external DSP-4 modules, detented gain controls with 1dB steps for precise calibration, removable knobs with lock-out security plate to prevent unauthorized tampering, user defeatable clip limiters and selectable low frequency filter per channel at 3Hz, 30Hz, or 50Hz and three selectable input gains of 26dB, 32dB, or 1.2 V.
Front and rear panel LED signal indicators mimic the status of switch settings at a glance, very useful in dark live situations. Audio inputs are balanced and presented on XLR connectors with loop-through for daisy chaining to other amplifiers, and also available on 3 pole detachable terminal blocks for commercial installations. Audio outputs are presented on 4mm binding posts and Speakon connectors. Mains power is applied via a Neutrik locking Powercon connector.
